Wolfgang, here is a shorter solution based on Sow and Reap In[1]:= lstIn = {2, 3, 4, 4, 2, 1, 1, 5, 4}; In[2]:= Sort@Last@Reap[MapIndexed[Sow[#2[[1]], #1] & , lstIn], _,List] Out[2]= {{1, {6, 7}}, {2, {1, 5}}, {3, {2}}, {4, {3, 4, 9}}, {5, {8}}} Adriano Pascoletti On 3 gen 2007, at 07:39, Dr. Wolfgang Hintze wrote: > Hello group, > happy new year to all of you! > > This one was put up in a slightly different form by me in March 2006. > It is now more general and it is lossless with respect to information: > > Given a list of integers which may repeat, e.g. > > lstIn = {2,3,4,4,2,1,1,5,4} > > provide a list of the different values and their respective > positions in > the original list.
